Reasonable winrate for split-pot games (Stud8)
Forgive me if this question has been answered before.
Given the split pot nature of the game, as well as other factors, what is a reasonable winrate (PT BB/100) for someone playing Stud8, say at a...

Re: What are the top pros worth?
Jamie Gold must have a damn deathwish with regards to his own money to sit in a game that size with that line-up. The only guy in that game that I don't think is a significant favorite to Gold is Guy...

Re: NL50 - AK 4bet sanity check
What are you asking here? If it's OK to fold AKs pre-flop in this spot?
I guess it is. The guy you are playing against certainly seems reasonable. Without reads, it's just a question of whether...

Re: NL50 - Folding KK preflop against possible AA?
I guess you can make an argument for folding here, but I'm not going to only 100 or so BB deep at 50NL. I'm just not capable of folding kings pre-flop at this limit for only 100BB in a cash game. I...

Re: to oot\'s married people
Married for 18+ years now. I can honestly say I love my wife more now than I did the day we got married.
Marry a good, kind, supportive person and you'll never regret it.

Re: TKo\'s Hand of the Day: KK in SB
There is no reason, EVER, to make this play. At any level. It's one thing to flat call a raise in position with kings. What you did was so bad as to make the Baby Jesus cry.
You want to get value...

Re: Nl50 - Getting c/r with JJ on drawy board
Man, that just sucks. Especially without reads.
I probably fold -- it smells like a set of fives or something to me. It could be a draw, of course, but without any reads, I'm not willing to push a...

Re: TT facing shove on a rag flop
I fold here. He could have a draw, but given how passive you say MP was, I think the worst hand you get shown in this spot is two pair.

Terrible spot. You're screwed almost no matter what against a guy this aggressive. If you raise the flop (which I would have probably done) and he flat calls, you are in no man's land. If he flopped...

Re: 1-2NL Live JJ vs Shooter
Bet the river. I know these kind of guys are terrifying to play against, but I really, really doubt he's got a queen. I think checking misses real value from your hand.

Re: 200nl: Alternative line with AKs
RR pre-flop. I think it's fine to call every so often, but 90% of the time, I want the money going in pre-flop when my hand has maximum leverage/value.

Re: KK....PLease help me....
As others have said, you must push the turn. If he's going to draw, he's got to pay. If you look up "blocking bet" in the dictionary, it would show a screenshot of that horsecrap $2 bet he made on...
